Blues made from cobalt were first used widely for painted decoration in China during the fifteenth century.

European potters tried to emulate this fine tableware, most successfully on artificial portcelain and tin-glazed earthenwares. The imports from China decline in the 1780s, and owners of Chinese services found it difficult to obtain replacements or additions.
